Book Opinion Needed Pleeeease.

[moon_dancing]

Give me a list of the top, say...ten books you think I should read before I die.

No need to put any HP books on the list, of course. But feel free to put something someone else may have already listed. The more I see it, the more I'll be sure to read it if I haven't already. =)

Thank you very much, I appreciate your help.

Soon, I'll actually update rather than keep asking for favors. *winks*

Heeeey you. Yes, I received your email and I should be able to have it back to you by sometime this weekend if not before. I'll try to make that my "yay, I did some work, time for a break" item while working on my paper for class. =)

Ohh! Lovely book suggestions! I've actually read 1,2,5,6, and 10 but it's been aaaagges. And I've read Frankenstein a million times. One of my faves for sure. I actually tried to watch the movie, the classic from 1930 something with that Boris guy and couldn't do because it's too far off from the book. Adam just laughed at me. I got through the first...oh, five minutes and stopped. Thank you for the list, darling. I do appreciate your opinions.

Love to ya and I'll try to get Ch 9 back to you asap.
*hugs*

Yay! Okay, perfect. I actually don't need it back until like mid-next week, but as soon as possible's always fab. (My goal is to update by the end of the first full week of December.)

Oh, yay! I'm glad. BAAAH I LOVE FRANKENSTEIN! It's like physically impossible to not sympathize for the monster, especially when he's living in the hut... And yes, the movie's absolutely terrible, it's so far off the book, it might as well have a completely different title.

Anytime, Miss. &hearts

Don't extend my deadline, lol, that equals more procrastination which I don't want to do to you.

Like the procrastination I'm doing now.

Ahh, yes, Frankenstein is FABULOUS. I actually go back and forth a bit with my sympathy, though it does tend to go more towards the monster. There are sooo many themes in that story, it's amazingly awesome.

I think there was only one (of the many) movies that stayed true to the book, and it has Mary Shelly's name in the title I believe though I've never seen it. It bothers me that people think the monster is Frankenstein...

Lol okay then, but midnight on Friday. OR ELSE. (Don't even talk about procrastination... I had basically an entire week off for Thanksgiving and I was supposed to be super productive [write at least half of my college essays and figure shit out for Senior Spring Break], but clearly, I've done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Except finish chapter 9, actually...)

Yeah, until I read the book, I thought that Frankie was the monster. Pff.

Also, new footballer obsession. Which means I need new icons. Blargh.

*grins* Right, Friday at midnight...

Hey, that's accomplishing something! I, on the other hand, accomplished nothing other than catching up on some sleep and watching movies in my spare time from working. When you work on the other side of Black Friday, it's not so fun...

Ooo, I just saw your update. Where's he from?

[white-tulips.livejournal.com]

Haha let's recap my break..
Wednesday: all-day Grey's Anatomy marathon with Rita
Thursday: sleeping and eating and Grey's
Friday: BLACK FRIDAY (although yeah, I see where you're coming from. That sucks)
Saturday: trying to write applications, but wasting time on YouTube instead and stalking Stevie G watching a BBCOne documentary on Steven Gerrard, and then my aunt's birthday party
Sunday: more trying, more procrastination
Today: even more trying, but less procrastination

He's the captain of Liverpool (coincidentally, my other Premiership team...) and has a pretty heavy Liverpoolian accent, which I find endearing. Lol.

Also, I've decided to nix college and higher education and just move to England to become a WAG (footballer's Wives And Girlfriends). I'd do the ridiculous shopping part really well.

Sounds like a nice week off. *grins*

Ooo, Liverpool. When I was in London a few years back I tried to find Liverpool stuff (shirt with the football team or art uni or ANYTHING) but I guess since I was in the wrong part of the country... Well, being from Liverpool gives him the okay in my book. =)

*laughs* For some reason, my dear, I don't doubt that you'd make a superb WAG.

[white-tulips.livejournal.com]

Yeah, apparently Liverpool has a lot of quality museums. Who knew?

Ah, can't you just see it? Me strutting down the streets of London spending all of my boyfriend/husband's money while I look absolutely fabulous. The only difference between a WAG and an Upper East Side second/third wife is the perks of free football tickets. Yaay!

[moon-dancing.livejournal.com]

I can see it. *grins*

Ahhh, and that, would be a superb perk, wouldn't it?
